One of the biggest problems most people find when joining a new forum, is that they have no idea what thread topics have already been made, and what thread topics should be made. Its a real pain when you come up a great idea for a new topic and discover that its already been made, or that nobody wants to participate in it. And then its a pain for the Mods because they have to move it to the Dead Thread Bed or merge it with another topic.

Well thats where this topic comes in. If you get an idea for a new topic but want a second opinion, or don't know if its already been made, you can suggest it here and leave it to the judgement of other users to decide whether or not they like the idea.Less hassle, less spam, less dead threads in the dead thread bed (try saying that 10 times fast), and more interesting topics So suggest away!

Re: Do you think ____ is a good Thread Topic?

It's not really a pain at all. We took this responsibility, and we gotta follow through with it. :3

I'd say as long as you follow forum rules, it's not a big deal what you want to start a thread about. We won't close it, but we can't guarantee activity.

If you want to scope out interest, however, might I recommend the chat thread?

I'm going to close this thread, ironically enough, because I think it's unnecessary.

I have already started a topic involving the many ideas for various people's inventions, where would that chat thread be again? And this is a very unique topic for the exact reason that it is not a specific topic

Re: Do you think ____ is a good Thread Topic?

The chat thread is the one with 'chat thread' in the title. It's in this forum.

Yes but I can't find it! I might as well have the mods shut it down...it seems like a pointless idea! But ideas are hard to come up with wouldn't you agree?

[Chat Thread 35]If you ever can't find it, you can always just use the "find" tool on whatever browser you use and tell it to find the phrase "Chat Thread". It seldom leaves the first page.

We also don't just shut down threads because they're inactive, only if they're truly pointless (which the topic you started is not, I mean pointless as in a topic for which an active thread already exists, or consists of something like "post the letter A") or if they break the rules somehow.

Re: Do you think ____ is a good Thread Topic?

It's our job to be pestered. We feel inadequate when we don't get in our daily quota of pestering.

So if I were to say...wanna know how certain things work here instead of checking the FAQ which is useless ask a Mod, I could?

Then to ask a question how specifically do the Friends and Foes feature work?

Re: Do you think ____ is a good Thread Topic?

The foe feature hides posts of those people. Honestly I think it serves virtually no purpose on this forum, since troublemakers end up banned, and for anyone else you're kinda being a jerk. I'm not really sure what the friends feature does. It's possible you can automatically be notified when friends post? I dunno.

Friend does not do anything but show when a friend is on when you check your or other people's profile.

Foe makes it so you can not see posts made by certain people, but it will still have a notification where the post was asking if you want to show it. And it is not that if you have a foe you are "being a jerk". Just use the feature if you feel yourself incompatible with someone. It does not however block them from PMing you.

I hope I'm not being a jerk, at least i try not to be.

I had wondered how that feature was supposed to work. Didn't wanna try it on someone just to see though. Might have sent a bad message for all i know and give the wrong impression.

What do you guys think about a tread topic about other webcomics we read.I'd be like a place where you can post links and pictures from webcomics besides Housepets! that you like. Then people can go and explore them
